A group of 30 Jewish young men sailed from here for Israel on a small boat, although their passports were not stamped with Israeli visas. Letters received today from the Jewish state by relatives here reveal that the youths landed safely in Haifa. Another contingent of Jewish youths from this country will leave soon for Italy to embark on an Israel-bound vessel.
